MEASUREMENTS

Lovey: 12” x 12” (30.5 cm x 30.5 cm)
Car Seat: 24″ x 30″ (60 x 75 cm)
Stroller: 30″ x 35″ (75 x 87.5 cm)
Crib: 45″ x 60″ (112.5 x 150 cm)
Throw: 60″ x 70″ (150 x 175 cm)

NOTES 

The linen stitch pattern is a multiple of 2+1 with a 1 row repeat.

If there is a + sign after the multiple for a stitch pattern that means there is an extra step to figure out your cast on. For example, if a stitch pattern tells you to cast on a multiple of 6+1. That means, first, you need to find a multiple of 6 that will give you the correct size project. If your gauge gives you 5 sts/in and you want about a 7″ washcloth you need the closest multiple of 6: 36 stitches. Then you need to ADD 1 more stitch to that, so your actual cast on would be 37 stitches for the project.
